"No lift. Staff were excellent. Restaurant/Pub are great. This is an older hotel, but that is part of the experience. We had a large room. Everything worked (hot water, outlets, etc.) Plenty of parking. We didn't use the spa/pool, but it looked nice."

"Great location and lovely rooms. The bed was super comfy and we had a great sleep. Though hotel was very busy it was also very quiet. The hotel is also very pet welcoming. Only food available in the evening was in the bar and to be honest the menu is not appropriate for a large hotel with only 4 starters ( of which one was unavailable) and six main courses - 4 of which came with boiled rice. This really needs improvement. The waitress ( there was only one) was lovely, very busy but also very courteous , attentive and friendly. Breakfast was continental but lots to chose from and good, fresh produce. Would absolutely stay again but unless menu changes would eat in nearby Helensburgh."

"Booked this hotel for the commonwealth games. It was our (sister) first time in Glasgow. The front desk or staff were helpful during check-in and our stay. Our room was clean and beds comfortable. Breakfast was ok but the pool/gym and sauna were excellent. Good Wi-Fi. Location for public transport was close (bus stop 5mins and train 10mins walk). Will definitely return. We both had a good time."

"The hotel, surrounding areas and lodges are nice. Lodges are spacious on the inside but has no cooking facilities or freezer facilities. Would be great if there was a stove and microwave. The hot tub and sauna in each individiual lodge was a great and we enjoyed the privacy. our lodge ensuite bathroom was leaking and even though the plumber came, it did not resolve the issue. The floor in the lodge was not mopped as when we came into the lodge the floor was sticky and dirty."
